Hak Tanah Adat Adalah Dijamin Di Bawah Perlembagaan

Oleh Tan Sri Hasmy Agam

Suruhanjaya Hak Asasi Manusia Malaysia (Suruhanjaya) memandang berat dan bimbang dengan kenyataan terkini yang dilaporkan dibuat oleh Peguam Negeri Sabah bahawa Ordinan Tanah Sabah (OTS) yang berkuatkuasa pada tahun 1930 tidak membenarkan wujudnya Hak Tanah Adat yang baru di Sabah. Menurut Peguam Negeri Sabah tidak ada peruntukan dalam OTS bagi anak negeri untuk membuat penempatan selepas 1930 dan menuntut Hak Tanah Adat, yang mana ianya jelas bercanggah dengan kedudukan Hak Tanah Adat yang merupakan hak asas masyarakat Orang Asal/Asli sepertimana dijamin dalam Perlembagaan Persekutuan.

Native Customary Rights To Land Are Guaranteed Under The Constitution

By Tan Sri Hasmy Agam

The Human Rights Commission of Malaysia (the Commission) views with great concern and disquiet over the recent statements reportedly made by the Sabah Attorney-General that the Sabah Land Ordinance (SLO) that came into force in 1930 does not allow for the creation of fresh Native Customary Rights (NCR) to land in Sabah. According to the Sabah Attorney-General, there is no provision in the SLO for natives to go into occupation of land after 1930 and claiming NCR on it, which clearly contradicts the position that NCR to land is a fundamental right of indigenous communities guaranteed under our Federal Constitution.

Orang Asal Tambanuo jawab Peguam Besar Negeri Sabah fasal NCR

Oleh James Ait (pemimpin Tambanuo dalam STAR)

Seribu enam ratus lima puluh tahun setelah Allah selesai menciptakan dunia ini, Allah telah mendapati bahawa kehidupan manusia pada waktu itu penuh dengan kejahatan. Allah mengambil keputusan untuk menenggalamkan dunia ini dengan banjir besar. Catatan daripapda masyarakat di Timur Tengah, yang tinggal hanyalah keluarga nabi Noh. Cerita yang diwariskan secara turun temurun oleh masyarakat Orang Asal (Tambanuo) di Sabah, yang tinggal hanyalah sepasang suami isteri yang baru kahwin yang hanya dikenali sebagai Laduon (nenek) dan Lakion (datuk). Sepasang suami isteri itulah yang memulakan suatu masyarakat baru Tambanuo selepas banjir besar yang lebih dikenali oleh masyarakat Tambanuo sebagai “losob”.

FELDA to return 306,000 acres of land to the State

By Kong Hong Ming, (PKR leader)

Kong – FELDA, another bad deal for Sabah

Federal Land Development Authority (FELDA) should return 306,000 acres of land to the State of Sabah because FELDA had breach its promise and reneged from its obligations to develop the land given to FELDA intended to serve the interest of the people of Sabah.

At the same time, Sabah BN State Government should be held responsible for its failure to protect the interest of the State and its people in the land settlement schemes undertaken by FELDA.

Jeffrey: What type of RCI approved by cabinet?

An RCI for Sabah should be done and completed
before the coming general election as many
'foreign' voters in Sabah are already on
the electoral roll.

By Luke Rintod of FMT

KOTA KINABALU: The much anticipated federal government’s green light for a Royal Commission of Inquiry (RCI) on how Filipino and Indonesian illegal immigrants gained Malaysian documents in Sabah has been met with suspicion by the State Reform Party (Star).

Star state chapter chairman Jeffrey Kitingan, who has been demanding an investigation for years, said though Sabahans welcomed the setting up of the RCI, the government must ensure its sincerity and integrity are reflected in the RCI.

He said he would like the federal leaders to consider a few points that are vital to safeguarding the country’s and the RCI’s own integrity.

Pengerusi Penganjur pelancaran itu, Dr. Nicholas Guntobon, memaklumkan bahawa tempat pelancaran itu adalah di Restoran Pelancongan, di Jalan Keningau-Tenom, lebih kurang dua kilometer dari pekan Keningau. “Kita akan mulakan pada jam 1.30 petang,” katanya. “Dan kami menjemput semua penyokong dan sesiapa juga yang berminat mendengar rasional kenapa kita harus berada dalam STAR seperti yang akan dihuraikan oleh Pengerusi STAR, Datuk Dr. Jeffrey Kitingan, dalam ucapan beliau.”

Pelancaran di Keningau tersebut adalah yang keempat bagi kawasan-kawasan parliament selepas Kota Marudu, Pitas, dan Kota Belud. Guntobon menjangka satu kehadiran yang lebih ramai dari biasa memandangkan Keningau adalah tempat asal Dr. Jeffrey. “Saya tidak hairan jika jumlah yang hadir akan lebih dari 4,000 orang yang telah membanjiri bangunan Hongkod bagi pelancaran parti peringkat negeri bulan lalu,” katanya.
